Hi,

I am running an embedded ActiveMQ 4.1.1 on Jboss 4.0.3. I am doing a stress
test with the following configuration. 

Publisher 

Threads - 6 
Iterations per thread - 100000 
Sleep time between iterations - 500 ms 

Consumer 

Listener Thread - 1 
Durable Topic consumer. 

broker configuration: 
memory limit set to 512 MB. 

As the stress test is progresses, I can see the Memory percentage usage
increasing. 

I used Jprofiler to monitor the VM. I could see a number of ActiveMQ
Scheduler and ActiveMQ TCP Transport daemon threads lingering. And also when
I monitored the heap , maximum memory in heap was used by instances of
LinkedList and byte[](I think the messages themselves). 

The LinkedList and byte[] references are not garbage collected and looks
like there is a memory leak.

The publisher after sending 130000 messages in 3 Hrs just hangs.
 
Regards
Gnanaprakash
